Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't want to, either. I often can't sleep at night, and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Is it pneumonia if a 1-year-old child has a cough and fever?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it might be a wind-cold cough, caused by exposure to wind and cold. This condition is characterized by frequent coughing, thin and white phlegm, clear nasal discharge, pale red tongue with thin white coating, heavy coughing sound, headache, slight fever, and in severe cases, shortness of breath. It can be treated with San Yao Tang plus herbs that lower Qi and resolve phlegm. Hello, it could be due to internal heat. Drinking more water and massaging to unblock lung Qi can help. In necessary cases, intravenous treatment may be used. Please pay attention to keeping warm to prevent catching a cold.
